Washington Wizards Betting Preview 

The Washington Wizards have been in dreadful form as they’ve lost 10 of their first 11 games and they will be hoping to snap a nine-game losing streak after falling just short to the Pistons in a 137-135 overtime loss on Monday. CJ McCollum led the team with 42 points, six rebounds and four assists, Cam Whitmore provided the spark off the bench with 20 points while Alex Sarr tallied 15 points with 15 rebounds and two blocks. As a team, the Wizards shot 52 percent from the field and 15 of 38 from the 3-point line as they looked to be in control after dominating the third quarter by 35-20 to take the lead. However, they leaked 40 points in the fourth quarter and managed just two points in the final 1:44 of overtime to allow the Pistons off the hook. 

Houston Rockets Betting Preview 

Meanwhile, the Houston Rockets have been on a tear as they’ve reeled off six wins from their past seven games and they will be looking to stay hot after sneaking past the Bucks in a 122-115 road win on Sunday. Kevin Durant led the way with 31 points and seven assists on 11 of 15 shooting, Alperen Sengun added 23 points with 11 rebounds and seven assists while Amen Thompson tallied 14 points with eight rebounds and five assists. As a team, the Rockets shot 53 percent from the field and 10 of 26 from the 3-point line as they got off to a sluggish start and trailed by seven points midway through the fourth quarter before they closed the final 5:12 on a 23-9 run to pull away in the end.

Washington Wizards vs Houston Rockets Prediction

The Wizards are still missing Bilal Coulibaly while the Rockets have ruled out Fred VanVleet and Dorian Finney-Smith again. The coldest team in the league takes on one of the hottest teams as the Wizards visit the Rockets on Wednesday. The Wizards have lost nine in a row, but they were more than competitive in their narrow overtime loss on Monday. The hefty might be enough to keep me interested if we saw more consistency from the Wizards, but I just don’t see them troubling this Rockets team who are getting better every game. The line seems high, but I will back the Rockets to maintain their momentum with another win and cover at home.
